This Christmas was a WHIRLWIND. We ended up decorating the house and getting our tree on the night of the 23rd – better late than never, right?! With all the chaos of hosting, my hubby and I decided to forego gifts for one another. We just bought a new house. And a new mini van (#momlife). And went through a huge move. Presents could wait. Once the dust settled, I was able to pick out a few things for myself. Although to be honest, they’re mostly gifts that benefit the whole family! Here are a few of my favorite gifts I received this holiday, along with a few of the items I chose to spoil myself with: This post was sponsored. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Munki Munki Pajamas If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll have seen this post. I got so many comments on my champagne bottle pajamas, and rightly so! They are seriously incredible. So soft and with a half button front, these PJs are perfect for breastfeeding. Considering how many champagne bottles we went through, they were totally appropriate. Munki Munki‘s signature fabric will have you wanting more. I love that they’re made in the […]

All opinions are mine alone. #BearyMerryVTechMom #CollectiveBias As a new mom all over again, there are a few things I’ve learned to have around. If I can find a way to make life easier and help things go more smoothly, I’m all about it. And if you’ve had a newborn you know – smooth and easy aren’t always two words that describe this time in your life! There’s gross poop, sore body parts, attempting to run off of a few hours sleep, and perpetually dealing with some kind of bodily fluid. This time of year in particular, it’s more important than ever to gift a new mom a little something special. With the holiday season in full swing and Christmas just under two weeks away, new moms definitely deserve to be spoiled. With that in mind, here are a few of my favorite goodies for new moms and newborns, to help make this time a little less chaotic. Newborn and new mom gift basket: My favorite gift idea for a new mom? A video monitor. The VTech VM341-216 Bear 2 Camera Full Color Baby Monitor to be precise. As I previously mentioned, sleep […]
The Best Gifts for the Ultimate Gilmore Girls Fans November 25th, humans around the globe will have a new reason to rejoice – The Gilmore Girls are back! I remember watching them with my mom through Middle and High School, and it was pretty much the only thing we did together at the time. I was starting to get in that “I’m too cool for my parents” phase, and like a typical teen, felt like they just couldn’t relate. However, my mom and I always had a standing date night to watch Gilmore Girls, and even to this day it’s “our” show. In fact, after we moved out of her house, a little birdie told me that she started watching the seasons over again on Netflix and there may have been some tears shed. Little did she know, I may or may not have been doing the same thing at Casa LPG (ok, I was). Because we were such Gilmore Girls fans back in the day, I’m hoping we’ll continue our viewing party date nights when the reboot happens, only this time it’ll have to be via the phone instead of on the couch together. I’m starting to get SO excited […]
